@AshleyNunn maybe it's the lighting, but it doesn't look so bad

badp

The Internet Explorer bug from this week has also been patched for XP

user15026

@MBraedley To me it is too close to Pepto Bismol to be appealing

MBraedley

@AshleyNunn it just doesn't look that pink in the photo

badp

@StrixVaria Lazers are mandatory

MBraedley

@badp but, but, but, XP isn't supported anymore

badp

9:07 PM

So by not placing the order for my computer parts at noon, it's now midnight and I saved €15 by waiting

Emergency patches don't look at the support timeline

this is kinda ridicolous

Q: Effects of using black separation crystal?

What are the actual consequences of using this item? Item description states 'beware fickle use of this item'.

MBraedley

@badp midnight? But you're only 5 hours ahead of me

badp

@MBraedley well "noon" wasn't particularly precise either

I mean, it's €15 out of €1,128

3ventic

9:12 PM

it's midnight here

badp

but it's still real money!!

MBraedley

So what you meant to say was after regular business hours

badp

@MBraedley the latest price update happened outside of (EU) business hours

Currently in definition.

MBraedley

Also, that's less than 1%, not sure it's worth it

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment really?

badp

9:14 PM

1% of 1,128 is 11.28

MBraedley

*2%

badp

wat

oh, you meant "less than 2%"

MBraedley

Brain fart. Working extra hours this week has taken its toll

badp

I mean, it's money I saved essentially because today isn't a business day here to begin with so there was no point in ordering today in the first place

9:16 PM

You guys have so few holidays and days off

agent86

what's going on in... oh lord no.

MBraedley

Yeah, I figured it was a holiday or some such

badp

@agent86 "not this again"

@MBraedley Workers' day or somesuch

We celebrate work by not working

It's the best celebration :P

agent86

as I understand it, it's a labor day holiday in china this week

they get thursday and friday off, but then they have to work sunday

which... seems wrong to me.

Lazy Europeans

badp

9:17 PM

yeah, most people are getting tomorrow off too

(but they aren't being asked to work on Sundays)

plus we had last Friday off, and the Monday before that.

agent86

so we've established in order of laziness from least to most lazy this week: USA! #1 -> China Weird Sunday -> EU, meh, we're not bothering

badp

You keep using this ">", I don't think it means what you think it means

MBraedley

Greater laziness?

agent86

you keep trying to correct me, I don't think it means what you think it means

my laziness is greatest of all

MBraedley

As in the US is the laziest of them all?

@agent86 You have to make up for your oppressive work regime

Q: What's the point of Assignments?

I really don't see the point in completing the assignments anymore, since the amount of coins they award is less than they cost to create. And, supply officers are almost useless--yes, they may save time to create ONE item, but you need 40-90 items per assignment, so what's one more hour when you...

badp

It's got two vowels, so it must be two syllables!

Undo

yeah, but that n at the end messes everything up.

can we remove it so that it works better in songs?

then we'd get to add a third case.

@Wipqozn I think the Bridge found out about that when Gnome had the brilliant idea of using his real name for a while.
